Area based deprivation status and incidence of first coronary events in Rome, 1998–2000: age standardised annual rates (per 100000 residents), age adjusted relative risks and confidence intervals (95% CI)
| Area based deprivation status* | Men | Women | ||||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Number of cases | Adjusted rate† | Relative risk‡ | 95% CI | Number of cases | Adjusted rate† | Relative risk‡ | 95% CI | |
| *Deprivation status was missing for 37 male and 19 female out of hospital deaths, and 320 male and 147 female hospitalised cases, not included in this table. †Age standardised rates, using the direct method with five-year age classes, and the world standard population. ‡Relative risks are age adjusted, using the Poisson model with five-year age classes and the population of Rome aged 35–84 years. §Low rates of out of hospital deaths among younger women necessitated the use of 10 year age classes instead. | ||||||||
